Gonzalo Higuain reunited with Maurizio Sarri at Chelsea in January. The loanee from Juventus struggled while on loan at AC Milan earlier in the season. His move to Chelsea did not work out particularly well either.

In his 14 league appearances for the Blues, he netted five times and for more than a month from the match against Wolves onwards, he experienced a goal drought. The Italian striker was once prolific during his time at Napoli with Sarri. At Napoli, Higuain scored 92 times in 147 appearances.

Higuain was purchased to replace outgoing Alvaro Morata who had been a disappointment for the Blues. The striker struggled to score on a weekly basis and Higuain was no better. The Italian is expected to return to Juventus, but he still has a match to play for Chelsea in the Europa League final against Arsenal.
